QUESTIONNAIRE

RIGHT TO LIFE

Under what circumstances should an elective abortion be allowed?

Never

Chemical abortion drugs should meet essential safety standards (such as in-person consultation with a medical doctor) and require reporting to gather evidence on reactions and outcomes.

Strongly Disagree

I do not support abortion.

Abortion providers, including Planned Parenthood, should not receive taxpayer funds from federal, state, or local governments (including Title X grants).

Strongly Agree

I do not support abortion.

I support 'aid in dying' laws which legalize assisted suicide and euthanasia.

Strongly Disagree

I do not believe in assisted suicide or euthanasia.


RELIGIOUS LIBERTY

Under what circumstances can government close churches?

None. First Amendment Fundamental Freedoms states that Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion or prohibiting the free exercise thereof.

Individuals and businesses should be required to provide services even if it would violate their moral and/or religious beliefs.

Strongly Disagree

That is totalitarianism and I don't agree with that.


NATIONAL SECURITY

The Chinese Communist Party poses serious military, cyber security, intellectual property, and global economic threats to the United States.

Strongly Agree

1 John 2:20 But ye have an unction from the Holy One, and ye know all things. KJV.

Is the United States' relationship with Israel important, and if so why?

Genesis 12:3 And I will bless them that bless thee and curse him that curseth thee: and in thee shall all families of the earth be blessed KJV. This United States of America is blessed because we have blessed Israel. God has blessed the United States to be the Greatest Nation in the World.


HEALTHCARE

What most closely matches your view on healthcare: A) Healthcare for all should be guaranteed and funded by the government with no private healthcare option. (includes "universal healthcare," "medicare for all," etc.) B) Healthcare insurance funded by the government should be available for all who want it, along with private healthcare options. C) Medicaid and Medicare should remain available, but no other taxpayer-funded programs are necessary. D) Taxpayer funded health care should be abolished in all forms, and Medicaid and Medicare should be defunded.

C Medicaid and Medicare should remain available.

Under what circumstances (if any) should a government, school, or employer be allowed to require vaccinations?

None. Should be up to the individual.


ECONOMY

Free enterprise and the right to private property are essential elements of a productive economic system.

Strongly Agree

Free enterprise is what made America great!

What is your position on the minimum wage?

I do not support minimum wage.

Should environmental and social issues, like ESG (environmental, social, and governance) ratings, be used as criteria in deciding where to invest public monies?

No

We just need to use common sense when investing public monies.


IMMIGRATION

The U.S. should do more to physically secure the southern border.

Strongly Agree

Why would We the People want to let a bunch of bad people into the United States. We need to control it.


EDUCATION

The state should fund education by allowing dollars to follow the child through programs which protect parents' freedom to choose their child's school – public, private, or homeschool.

Strongly Agree

The parents should have a choice.


CRIMINAL JUSTICE & PUBLIC SAFETY

I support redirecting funds from police departments to community programs.

Strongly Disagree

If the funds stay with the police department, they will be equipped and trained to protect and serve the community to the best of their ability. The police are here to protect our community and do that more than a community program would. It makes sense to keep the funding with the police department.


2ND AMENDMENT

What restrictions on gun ownership are needed to protect public safety?

None

Should teachers be allowed to carry guns at school?

Yes

Only well trained and vetted teachers.


ABOUT YOU

Have you ever been penalized for sexual misconduct in either civil or criminal court? If so, please explain.

NO

Have you ever been convicted of a felony? If so, please explain.

NO

What do you think is the general purpose of government?

Promote public policies based on the principles of free enterprise, limited government, individual freedom, traditional American values, protect the people of the United States of America with a strong defense.

When you consider your views on a wide range of issues from economic and social matters to foreign policy and religious liberty, which of the following best describes you overall?

Very Conservative

We can and WE THE PEOPLE will do better. 1 Timothy 5:8 But if any provide not for his own house, he hath denied the faith, and is worse than an infidel. KJV I'm here to protect my grandsons and your children.


VALUES

Children are the most vulnerable members of society and must be protected from abuse, including gender ideology, grooming, and bodily mutilation.

Strongly Agree

The world is really getting sick to even think about doing this to children. We can do better!

Parents should have the right to make decisions for their minor children.

Strongly Agree

The parents are responsible for them until they are 18 years of age.

Taxpayer funds should be used to provide gender transition services.

Strongly Disagree

World is sick for even having these kind of discussions. We can do better.

Marriage is a God-ordained, sacred and legal union of one man and one woman. No government has the authority to alter this definition.

Strongly Agree

Genesis 1:27- 28 So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them. And God blessed them, and God said unto them, be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it.

Briefly describe your spiritual beliefs and values.

I believe in the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. Jesus is Lord of all and every knee will bow too.


ELECTIONS AND VOTING

People should be able to vote without photo identification.

Strongly Disagree

We the People need to know that you are part of the United States of America!

States should join the National Popular Vote Interstate Compact which makes the Electoral College irrelevant.

Strongly Disagree

It was ingenious of our forefathers to come up this idea! If we did away with it the only one's voting would be city people. The sparsely populated would have no vote.


EQUALITY

Is racism a threat to domestic security in the United States? Why or why not?

No. Look at the polls and do your due diligence.

I agree with Critical Race Theory (CRT) which asserts that the institutions in the United States are fundamentally racist.

Strongly Disagree

It is up to an individual to make decisions, what they want to expose themself to.

Biological males should not be allowed to participate in women's sports or occupy biological women's spaces whether it be bathrooms, locker rooms, sorority houses, women's shelters, or prison.

Strongly Agree

The world is sick for even thinking or discussing this. We need to do better.


ENERGY & ENVIRONMENT

Which comes closest to your view? (Select all that apply) A) Stricter environmental laws and regulations cost too many jobs and hurt the economy. B) Stricter environmental laws and regulations are worth the cost. C) Stricter environmental laws undermine U.S. energy independence and deter development of reliable electricity sources. D) Climate change is real and requires urgent policy action.

A. Free Enterprise is the engine that pulls the train down the tracks. If you put too much of a load on it and it will not be able to pull it anymore.

What do you believe is the most reliable energy source that will supply the growing demand for electricity?

Natural gas! Let the Government do what it is supposed to do to build infrastructure.
